Protecting Philadelphia’s Most Vulnerable Residents

Families trust nursing homes to care for their loved ones with dignity and respect. But when that trust is broken, when caregivers neglect or abuse the elderly, the damage can be devastating. Abuse in long-term care facilities often goes unreported, leaving victims in pain, afraid, and unable to speak for themselves.

At Kwartler Manus, our nursing home neglect & abuse attorneys in Philadelphia refuse to let neglect go unanswered. Our firm represents victims and families across Philadelphia who have suffered from nursing home abuse, neglect, or wrongful death. We investigate aggressively, hold institutions accountable, and fight for full compensation for every ounce of harm caused.

Recognizing the Signs of Nursing Home Neglect and Abuse

Abuse in nursing homes often hides in plain sight. Staff may rush explanations, downplay injuries, or discourage questions. Families who visit regularly are often the first to notice when something isn’t right and early action can save lives.

Common signs of nursing home neglect include:

  • Unexplained bruises, cuts, or fractures
  • Sudden changes in mood or withdrawal
  • Bedsores or pressure ulcers
  • Poor hygiene, soiled clothing, or unclean rooms
  • Malnutrition or dehydration
  • Overmedication or missed medications
  • Frequent infections or hospital visits

If something feels wrong, it probably is. Our attorneys act immediately to preserve medical records, staff schedules, and surveillance footage before evidence disappears.

Types of Nursing Home Negligence We Pursue

Neglect and abuse can take many forms, from poor medical care to outright physical violence. Our attorneys are experienced in exposing patterns of misconduct, understaffing, and profit-driven cost-cutting that put residents at risk.

We handle cases involving:

  • Physical abuse by staff or other residents
  • Emotional or psychological abuse
  • Sexual assault or harassment
  • Medical negligence and medication errors
  • Failure to prevent falls or wandering
  • Neglect leading to infections, bedsores, or sepsis
  • Financial exploitation of residents

These cases demand urgency and expertise. Our team doesn’t wait for nursing homes to cooperate; we compel them to provide answers through subpoenas and expert analysis.

Holding Nursing Homes Accountable Under Pennsylvania Law

Pennsylvania law requires nursing homes to provide adequate supervision, staffing, and care to all residents. When they fail, they can be held civilly liable for damages under state and federal regulations, including the Nursing Home Reform Act.

Through years of trial work, we’ve seen how these institutions cut corners, overwork staff, and prioritize profit over people. We don’t let them hide behind excuses or corporate layers.

Families may be entitled to recover damages for:

  • Medical expenses related to abuse or neglect
  • Pain, suffering, and emotional distress
  • Costs of transferring to a new facility
  • Wrongful death damages in fatal cases
  • Punitive damages for reckless or willful conduct

When a facility’s behavior is deliberate, we make sure the punishment fits the harm and sends a message to every other operator in the region.
